The Karaoke Group gave a spirited luncheon performance.

Dear Members,It is hard to believe the year is coming to the end. We are sad to say that five of our current Advisory Board members that have served the members with com-mitment and enthusiasm are moving on to other things. I am excited that for the first time in many years, there has been great interest in serving the membership for the next two years. It is great to see such commitment from the membership to serve and look for ways to continually improve the Center.

The Center experienced another plumbing problem on Tuesday, September 30, which forced us to close for the remainder of the day and the following day. We appreciate everyone’s cooperation in evacuating the Center

CENTER SUPERVISORS:Greg Palace Karen Sederberg

Hi Everyone! Fall is almost over and winter (ugh) is nearly upon us. I read somewhere that this winter will not be as bad as last year. I hope “they” are right. Nevertheless, our Center will be warm and inviting. If you start to get the “winter doldrums,” come on over and meet your friends and enjoy the winter inside. We have had many new members join, and it is good to see them continue to come and participate in some of the activities here. Thanks to all of you who make them feel welcome.

The holidays are fast approaching, if you have nowhere to go and no one to celebrate them with, come here. You don’t have to be alone. We have our Thanksgiving luncheon at the Center and our Christmas luncheon at the Avalon; both are always a festive time. Don’t forget to register early for them. We have our Holiday Bazaar in December, so you can do some Christmas shopping for that unique gift you need for someone special. Bring the grandkids to Breakfast with Santa while you shop at the Bazaar. Please come and join us at “Our Center” and bring a friend or friends with you and perhaps you can convince them to join.

Happy Holidays everyone and God Bless,

President,Pat Angelino

Potato Chip MeditationTues. Dec. 2 10 – 11:30amHow not to overeat for the HolidaysAfter a potato chip dissolves in a person’s mouth, all that’s left is the taste of starch.

Once you learn to taste food slowly, you’ll enjoy it more and eat smaller portions – a skill many people would like to master as we enter the holiday season. Dr. Om Johari will present one of his most popular meditation programs using potato chips to teach us how not to overeat. Fee: Free Barcode: 90348Location: Adult Center Computer Room
